Is there a hausratgenie for motorhomes?

hausratgenie is designed for home contents, not for vehicles. It has no camper logic like vehicle, VIN, or zones, and no insurance- or police-ready camper report. For a home inventory it’s solid; for a camper inventory it lacks the vehicle-specific fields.

Can I use a home-contents app for my camper inventory?

Technically yes — you can capture items, photos, and values anywhere. But you’re missing the link to the vehicle and a report prepared for the claim and the police statement. When it matters, that’s exactly what counts. A camper-specific solution takes that structuring work off your hands.

What sets CamperProof apart from Sortly?

Sortly is a flexible, generic inventory app — good for storage, moving house, or small businesses, but not camper-specific and without a police report. CamperProof is built from the ground up for motorhomes, vans, and caravans: the vehicle, VIN, zones, structured receipts and serial numbers, EU data storage, and an insurance- and police-ready PDF report.

Do I even need an app — isn’t a spreadsheet enough?

A spreadsheet beats nothing and is a good start. But it rarely gives you photos on the item, secure receipt storage, and a finished report for insurance and police. As soon as expensive gear and a real claim are on the line, a solution that handles exactly that pays off.

The Best Inventory App for Campers — Comparison & Alternatives

There are plenty of inventory apps — most are built for the home or the warehouse, not for your camper. Here we compare the obvious options honestly and show you what motorhome and caravan owners should really watch for when it comes to filing a claim.

Anyone who wants to document their camper inventory quickly runs into familiar names: Sortly, hausratgenie, and various generic inventory apps. They can all manage lists, photos, and values — the only question is whether they can do what actually matters when you file a claim: a link to the vehicle, an insurance- and police-ready report, and data storage you trust.

Who each tool is built for

No tool is “better” in a vacuum — it depends on your use case. Three rough camps:

Generic inventory apps (e.g. Sortly) — flexible and good for storage, moving house, or small businesses. You build everything yourself, including the structure and logic.
Home-contents apps (e.g. hausratgenie) — tailored to the home and classic household contents. Strong for a four-walls inventory, without any vehicle thinking.
Camper-specific solutions (CamperProof) — built for motorhomes, vans, and caravans: the vehicle, VIN, zones, gear that travels with you, and the report for insurance and police.

The comparison at a glance

	CamperProof	hausratgenie	Generic inventory apps (Sortly and similar)
Tailored to campers (vehicle, zones, VIN)	Yes, camper-specific from the ground up	No, focused on home contents	No, generic — no camper logic
Insurance- & police-ready PDF report	Yes, structured report incl. a police version	Not camper- or police-specific	Export possible, but no police report
Data storage	EU-hosted, in your hands	Depends on the provider — check the terms	Often US cloud — check the terms
Receipts & serial numbers structured	Yes, a dedicated field per item	Receipts/photos possible, without camper fields	Flexible, but you structure it yourself
Language & German support	German, DACH focus	German	Often primarily English

Inventory apps compared for campers — focused on what counts when you file a claim.

Why camper owners need more than a list

Generic apps can do a lot — but not the thing that matters when you file a claim. A camper isn’t a cupboard: the gear travels with you, sometimes sits unattended at a pitch, and belongs to a specific vehicle with a VIN. After a break-in you don’t need just any list, but proof that documents ownership, value, and possession for each item — prepared for insurance and police.

Link to the vehicle: what belongs to which camper, which zone, which VIN?
A report, not raw data: a structured PDF report for the claim and the police statement — not just a CSV export.
EU data: serial numbers, plates, and purchase values are sensitive. Where they live is a deliberate choice — not the fine print.

Which fields per item really count and how to structure them is covered in the guide to the motorhome inventory list. What proof your insurer ultimately wants to see is in the guide “What proof does your insurer really require?”.
